NBC, Fox News call election for Obama

After both networks called Ohio for Obama, they brought the gavel down on 2012. Virginia, Nevada and Florida were still to be called, according to Fox, but Mitt Romney’s last path to 270 electoral votes was gone.

Lead Fox anchor Chris Wallace, however, soon went on-air to say Fox may have made a too-early call: “The Romney camp has real doubts about the call made by us.”

Top Republican strategist Karl Rove said, “This is premature.”

Then, in a bit of Must See TV, then Fox gets the jitters. Anchor Megyn Kelly was dispatched a couple floors away — or somewhere — LIVE to interview Fox’s own “Decision Desk” – the network’s own in-house numbers crunchers.

“We are quite comfortable” with our call on Ohio, The Desk told Kelly. And they didn’t back down from Rove.
